Ⅴ. 阅读理解
阅读下面的材料，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
In June 2025, a group of Chinese free divers had an unforgettable experience in the Gulf of Mexico. They originally planned to look for orcas(虎鲸), but to their surprise, they found a huge blue whale trapped in(困住) a 30-meter-long fishing rope. The rope was tightly tied around the whale’s tail fin(鳍), making it impossible for the poor creature to swim freely or dive for food.
The divers quickly realized how serious the situation was. A blue whale is the largest animal on Earth, growing up to 30 meters long and weighing over 150 tons. If the rope wasn’t removed soon, the
whale would become weaker and weaker, and might even lose its life. However, rescuing(营救) such a huge animal was extremely dangerous. The whale could easily hurt the divers with its powerful tail.
Among the divers, Xiao Xiao was good at operating a drone(无人机), which helped them keep track of the whale’s position from the air. Another diver named A Le, who had rich experience in underwater rescue, decided to take action. He put on his diving suit and jumped into the sea. With great courage and careful movements, A Le approached the whale quietly. When he found the best moment, he quickly cut the rope connecting to the whale’s body.
After the last piece of rope was removed, the blue whale suddenly swam around happily, as if thanking the rescuers. It then jumped high out of the water several times before swimming into the deep sea. The whole rescue process was recorded by Xiao Xiao’s drone and later became popular on social media, touching millions of people around the world.
